Bangor YMCA Hosts Benefit Auction

The Bangor YMCA held their annual benefit auction Saturday at Jeff’s Catering in Brewer.More than 180 guests attended, making it the largest turnout the Y has seen in the 13 years of hosting the event.There was a silent and live auction with more than 200 items donated by local businesses. Up for grabs, unique art by local artists, weekend giveaways, and even event tickets.” All the proceeds go to support our scholarship programs to help those who otherwise wouldn’t be able to afford our programs. As an example, we sent 130 children this Summer to Camp Jordan on scholarship as a result of fundraisers just like tonight.”They are hoping to raise around $25,000.
